Bay & Greenhouse Windows WeatherTight™

Sizes

Maximum sizes for bay and greenhouse windows and sashes vary by width, height, wind zone, and glazing requirement. Your local Nulook fabricator will be able to advise you whether a configuration is possible or contact Altus Technical support.

As a guide, fixed window panels up to 1.2m high by 1.2m wide are attainable. Normal configurations involve multiple mullions and transoms that can be used in combination to meet most requirements. Limitations often relate to the structural nature of the support for the window, i.e. how much weight they can they hold.

Note: For compliance with NZS4211:2008 and or the NZ Building Code a security stay, safety latch, or restrictor may be required for certain sash sizes.

Pocketed sashes provide for greater security and can accommodate most glazing sizes from 4mm to 22mm.

Beaded sashes are used to provide for a wide range of glazing options from 4mm to 24mm.

French casement sashes are available with glazing options from 4mm to 24mm.
